Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of elastic washers, and in particular to a serrated elastic washer. Background Art

[0002] A washer is a part between a connector and a nut. It is generally a flat metal ring used to protect the surface of the connector from being scratched by the nut and to disperse the pressure of the nut on the connector. There are also rubber elastic washers that are used to position the components for relative rotation and relative sliding. They are widely used in various threaded connections.

[0003] The existing double nut structure: although it has good anti-loosening performance, it is costly and slow to install; the double-tooth gasket structure: it is difficult to process and requires the use of other products to fix the gasket sequence (such as glue); the threaded nut: generally composed of a nut and a locking washer, although it has a simple structure and good anti-loosening performance, the installation torque requirement is also high.

[0004] The mainstream anti-loosening fasteners on the market, whether listed above or not, all have a common problem: the loosening torque is less than or equal to the installation torque. Summary of the invention

[0011] The beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: compared with the prior art, the present invention has a reasonable structural design, the elastic gasket body is flattened after installation, at this time ∠a is smaller than ∠b, the installation angle is smaller than the loosening angle, so the loosening torque is greater than the installation torque. The structure is simple, the clockwise or counterclockwise serrations play an anti-loosening role, and the front and back sides of the elastic gasket body 1 can be locked at the same time by the clockwise or counterclockwise serrations, the loosening torque is greater than the installation torque and the practicability is good.

In addition, if the terms "first", "second", and "third" appear, they are only used for descriptive purposes and cannot be understood as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0015] Embodiment 1 See also Figures 1 to 8 The present invention discloses a serrated spring washer, comprising an elastic gasket body 1, wherein the front and / or back surfaces of the elastic gasket 1 are provided with serrations 11, the serration locking angle of the elastic gasket body 1 before installation is ∠a, the serration locking angle of the elastic gasket body 1 after installation is ∠b, ∠a is smaller than ∠b, and the loosening torque of the elastic gasket 1 is greater than the installation torque.

[0016] Preferably, the elastic angular force of the elastic gasket body 1 is F, and under the action of the elastic angular force, the loosening torque of the elastic gasket 1 is greater than the installation torque.

[0017] In order to make the structural design of the embodiment of the present invention more reasonable, as a preferred embodiment, the front and back surfaces of the elastic gasket body 1 described in this embodiment are both fixedly provided with clockwise serrations in an annular array. That is, the serrations 11 are arranged in a clockwise direction, and the number of the serrations 11 is more than 3, and the serrations 11 are all integrally provided with the elastic gasket 1.

[0018] The elastic gasket body 1 is made of metal, plastic or nylon, and an opening 12 is provided at a local position of the elastic gasket body 1 .

[0019] The sawtooth locking angle ∠a of the elastic gasket body 1 before installation is 75-85°, and the sawtooth locking angle ∠b of the elastic gasket body 1 after installation is 90-100°.

[0020] In actual application, the elastic gasket body 1 is flattened after installation. At this time, ∠a is smaller than ∠b, and the installation angle is smaller than the loosening angle, so the loosening torque is greater than the installation torque.

[0021] After installation, the elastic gasket body 1 is subjected to forces at four angles, such as Figure 8As shown, F1 is the front elastic angle stop force; F2 is the back elastic angle stop force; F3 is the front serration stop force; F4 is the back serration stop force. The structure is reasonable and simple, the serrations play a role in preventing loosening, and the front and back sides of the elastic gasket body 1 can be locked at the same time through the serrations, the loosening torque is greater than the installation torque and the practicability is good.

[0022] Embodiment 2 See also Figures 9 to 16 The second embodiment is an improvement made on the basis of the first embodiment. The difference between the second embodiment and the first embodiment is that the front and back surfaces of the elastic gasket body 1 are both fixedly provided with reverse serrations in a circular array.

[0023] In actual application, the reverse serrations play an anti-loosening role. The elastic gasket body 1 is flattened after installation. At this time, ∠a is smaller than ∠b, the installation angle is smaller than the loosening angle, and the front and back sides of the elastic gasket body 1 can be locked at the same time through the reverse serrations. The loosening torque is greater than the installation torque and has good practicality.
